SAN DIEGO—Down by four runs and on the verge of a second straight home loss, the San Diego Padres rediscovered their offense on Oct. 19 in time to level the National League Championship Series.

Brandon Drury and Josh Bell homered on back-to-back, second-inning pitches to cut the Padres’ deficit in half, and San Diego came up with a five-run fifth inning to beat the Philadelphia Phillies 8–5.
